Social Data Mining

Social data mining is providing enterprises with a whole new world of business intelligence. By monitoring and manipulating massive social data sets, enterprises can use social data mining to gain deeper insight into customers, prospects, markets, and trends.

But social data mining presents some pretty serious challenges for most enterprises. Organizations typically lack the state-of-the-art technology it takes to perform mining on massive data sets from social sources. Legacy integration systems simply can scale to keep up with the volume of data and emerging sources. And working with the big data sets that social data mining requires involves a pretty specific skillset – one that most developers have yet to acquire.

Talend's big data software addresses these problems with a powerful and versatile platform that lets you connect to any data source, load and manipulate massive data sets, and master social data mining with nothing more than your existing infrastructure and the skills you already have on staff.

Talend delivers big data technology for social data mining.

Talend's big data solutions let you use social data mining to drive business performance, without needing to make large investments in people or technology.

Talend runs 100% natively in Hadoop, the leading platform for working with big data and perform social data mining. Talend's big data components have been tested and certified to work with leading Hadoop distributions, including Hortonworks, the Cloudera distribution and the MapR distribution, among others. And Talend lets developers take advantage of the speed and power of databases like HBase, Cassandra, and MongoDB for Hadoop – without needing to have any specific knowledge of NoSQL databases.
